An Hour
Wolf looks and Dog looks, too.
There's no kitty to be seen.
"Where is she?" Dog asks.
"There ... or there." Wolf sounds vague.
"She'll turn up.
Now and then she goes off ...
For an hour or so."
"An hour!"…

I Can't Bark
Now it's Dog's turn to laugh.
"A kitty!" he says.
"Are you a scaredy-cat, Wolf?"
"Oh, no," Wolf says quickly.
"I'm not scared.
What an idea.
But the kitty gets on my nerves.

Family Tree
Dog claps the book shut.
He looks all around.
There's a tree, old and tall.
Dog grins.
"May I?" he asks.
He points at the tree.
Wolf grins as well.
He nods.
"It's not a family tree," says Dog.
"It's…

Rats!
"Oh," says Dog.
Now he gets it.
"Cap" becomes "pack".
And "live" becomes "evil",
But "did" stays "did",
no matter how you twist or turn it.
Dog puts his cap back on.
He buttons up his coat.
"Isn't…

You Stole My Flea!
"Now I get it," says Wolf.
"That's where the flea's gone.
I thought something was missing.
But what? What was it?

Your Happy Friend
Dear Duncan,
As green crayon, I am writing for two reasons. One is to say that I like my work - loads of crocodiles, trees, dinosaurs and frogs. I have no problems and wish to congratulate you on a very successful "colouring things GREEN"…
Your Empty Friend
Dear Duncan,
You colour with me, but why?
Most of the time I'm the same colour as the page you are using me on - WHITE.
If I didn't have a black outline, you wouldn't even know I was THERE!
I'm not even in the rainbow.
I'm…
Your Beige Friend
Dear Duncan,
I'm tired of being called "light brown" or "dark tan" because I am neither.

I am also tired of being second place to Mr. Brown Crayon.
It's not fair that Brown gets all the bears, ponies…

I Think Turtle Did Too
Then I rubbed Turtle's tummy and pretended to snore. And that made Daddy laughed. Even though I was very big now, holding Turtle still felt pretty good.
"Night-night, my big boy," whispered Daddy.
"Night-night, my Daddy," I whispered.…
Lonely and Sad
When I was still a little kid and had to take a nap, sometimes I felt lonely and sad.
